Rod Selection for Wacky Worm
I'm looking to setup a rod and reel that will be used almost exclusively for wacky worming. What are some of the setups y'all are using ? I have a Lew's Tourney Pro G in 8.3:1 coming for it. Just trying to decide what the best rod might be.

Spinning rod setup for wacky rigging IMO is best option

I'm using an Abu Garcia Revo SX on a homemade rod my Dad had built. It's a 6'6" MH with a slightly quicker than "fast" tip. He said it was designed to be a rod for speckled trout. I have it strung with Sufix Elite 12lb line and it casts a finesse worm with a nail weight in the head surprisingly well. I'm gonna try it with 8lb test but haven't gotten around to it yet.
I have no accuracy with spinning rods so I don't use them. |

I build a 7' med lite that is great wacky worm rod, I use a MHX sj842 blank that has a fast tip and plenty of backbone. Your choice of grip material, we can even talk about a "test drive" if you want.

I ended up getting the Freshwater 7'-2" Spinnerbait DUCE rod. Messed with it a little on the river Sunday, I think it will work just fine for what I want to do. Thank You for the input !
